Programmes By Date - Aigas Field Centre

I tried a Naturedays Open House recently and it's *exactly* what I've been trying to create out of the wooded spaces near where I live. But someone's already done it (Fin, as far as I can tell - based on my own experience and from what other home-edding parents have told me about them). Its pedagogy is something I've been trying to find for years (both in the Highlands and Central Belt) and I'm so happy that it exists here - if Fin ran this programme more regularly (essentially a forest school for older kids, not just nursery), we'd be scrambling to sign up.

If you love the natural world, this is a great place to see it. I can't imagine that there's anyway as good in Britain. Can't recommend it highly enough.

It is the second time that I have been to Aigas and it was even better. The facilities, staff, food and the estate are wonderful. The quality of the food is superb and nothing is too much trouble to cater for specialist dietary requirements. I go for the wildlife and it never fails to captivate. The evening hide for the pine martens is brilliant and has now attracted a badger as a regular visitor. The rangers are well prepared and know where to take you to ensure you maximise on wildlife viewing. Even the highest quality of equipment, in the Swarovski scopes, ensure that you see what is around no matter what the distance. Well done, Aigas. You go from strength to strength in helping to build peopl's appreciation for wildlife and it's great to know that our visits help to contribute to it's conservation.
